• How does AC work?

1 answer:

4 0

AC reverses the current in periods, and the current flows in 2 directions.
DC only flows in one direction and is constant.

AC is typically used to transfer power over long distances from a generator to your home, stepping it up after it's generated to send it over the distance, then stepping it back down so that it is usable in your home.

DC is used typically inside of devices, as it sends a certain amount of electricity through the wires.

Nicolas Tesla, was ripped off by Edison to replace his DC stations with AC instead. ^^

Explain what voltage,current, resistance are and how they relate to Ohms law. Then give examples

SOVA2 [1]

Voltage is the difference in charge between two points.
Current is the rate the charge flows
Resistance is the tendency a material has to resist the flow of charge (current)
Combining voltage resistance and current Ohm developed the formula
V (Voltage)= I (Current) x R (Resistance)

Answer:

A wet body has a relatively high concentration of water. When this is transferred to a towel, the large surface area of the towel fabric distributes the water molecules over a much greater surface area, so the relative concentration is lower.
